All of a sudden we started receiving information from Elected Officials I, (quite frankly) had never heard of. But there's more...
Interested parties from across the Bridge are even more interested in Salisbury News as a whole, as in perhaps a purchase of what we've created.
I've enjoyed the phone calls but to their shock I explained that I never created Salisbury News to make money. I created it to INFORM the public, thanks but no thanks.
In a sense we've all become a large Family, so to speak. You and I both know, if someone were to buy what we have, things would never be the same and I'm just not going to let that happen.
So "Love Us Or Hate Us" Salisbury News isn't going anywhere. Just in case any rumors start flying around about us changing hands, it's NOT true. You have my personal word on that.

Sure, they find a way to buy you out and turn it into their propaganda or shut it down completely.
They must think you're stupid or greedy. Surprise on them.
They will pay anything to silence you, Joe! They just can't stand it!
By all means sell and move to North Carolina
Thank you for staying focused on "why" you started this alternative media source. I don't agree with all of your positions but I agree with your overall assessment of our local government and the wrong direction we as a society are going.
Keep it up and stay true to yourself.
Well thank you for that, cause I'm sure they would turn it into a lying mess sooner or later or shut it down altogether. Thank you Joe for what you do, and please keep it up.
5:39-No one is going to agree with everything stated in this blog or any other news source.Joe would think we had taken ill if we agreed with every position he took on every topic.
Joe-
Beware Greeks bearing gifts - it could be Barrie and Mikey trying to shut down SBYNEWS.
I'll pay you to leave! Please go Joe
thank you joe...
anonymous 6:40, aka, JT, ROTFLMAO! I don't use food stamps.
No you don't. You just exploit people that worked for you to make tons of money and pretend to be the next messiah because you relocated to one of the poorest areas in the country so you would be rich.
It wouldn't surprise me the least if the Democratic party leadership sent a personal delegation down to try and buyout SBYnews. It could O'Malley himself - knowing full well that you might thwart his chance for his Presidential bid. After all, who knows Maryland,and, all its characters, any better than SBYnews.
Thanks Joe - I'm sure they would pay you a mint.
Keep up the good work Joe, we love the SBYNEWS. And who the heck is J.T. ? A miserable guy who posts Idiotic Comments?
O'malley doesn't have a chance in hell of being elected president.
JT is now asking for donations for his site. Does the government know about all this extra money he is trying to get. It's not allowing comments but there are 4 dislikes and 0 likes. LOL. He is a piece of work (a very large piece of work)
Good work Joe, this a White House campaign to silence dissent. They're approaching bloggers, radio hosts, independent media to buy them out. You can guarantee by saying no, your blog will have double the amount of vile comments trying to get through to discredit sbynews and paint you as either a) racist or b) threatening "national security". LOL, JT will have people doing what he does, but they'll be paid to do it!
Thanks Joe and contributors/commentors to SBY news.
They want to buy you out so you they can have the news reported the way they want. Kind of like how the corporations are now running the main stream media.
To ALL, Thank You for the incredible support.
Look, for what it's worth, I can tell you right now the machine is already in motion. Allow me to explain.
I can tell you flat out, we're rejecting at least 50% of the comments coming through. ESPECIALLY on the most popular posts with comments.
There are death threats, racial remarks, attacks on Obama and O'Maley, (like there's no tomorrow).
ALL of which they, (in time) would attempt to use against me, just like Ireton's crew attempted to constantly do during the election. It was never about who was the better man. It was about how badly they could try to put me down, which I'm cool with, so you know. I an take what I dish out.
Aside from that, we'll probably be the last Blog standing because after 10 years of doing this, I'd say we're professionals at comments. Do we make mistakes, absolutely. However, IF YOU saw the volume of crap that comes into this Blog you'd be blown away.
Again, thanks for all the support.
Joe, I sometimes disagree with you and I hate some of the things I read here, both in fed posts and comments, BUT!
You are far more honest with what you post and how you post it than 99% of what's out there, and 100% of what's in Salisbury.
Now you know why you got your press pass. "Bury" dissent is what that sticker really means.
WHY DONT OMALLEY IRETON POLLITT ROBINSON AND JT MOVE TO CALIFORNIA WHERE THEY WOULD BE MUCH LOVED???
If it were my site, I would sell it and reap the profits and then invest in launching a new site and inform everyone of the name of the new site.
Joe.. Keep up the great work!
It is obvious that the presently governing/politcal forces want Salisbury News GONE.
Integrity can not be bought.
